Midlocks AFC-1L All-purpose midlock for 20’ ISO gap and lashing gap The second generation AFC-1L midlock was developed from the proven features of the world’s first automatic fixing cone – the renowned AFC-1. The AFC-1 was a pioneer product in modern container securing arrangements because it provided the opportunity to easily and efficiently stow 20’ containers with minimum longitudinal clearance on board vessels. The AFC-1L midlock is always used in conjunction with semi-automatic or manual twistlocks to ensure safely secured containers. As for ship design, the AFC-1L provides the opportunity to either shorten a ship‘s overall length with a fixed number of container bays or accommodate additional container bays to a given ship length.
